They'd just had a major DVD release the year before, the Bridges Tour vid on Warner Bros. label. The DVD market was still young in 1998 so another so soon after would have made no sense.

like the stones' releases make any sense. that may have been a reason, i suppose, but if true, then why bother recording the shows in the first place?

I dunno StonesTod, maybe for them it's a matter of 'why not' record them? THey have a camera crew for the screens obviously, when they decide to 'document' a show for release does their camera staff double? How is it know what shows are recorded and what aren't (I'm genuinely asking, I have no idea).
Justin, that's a vid I'd love to see for sure, 1999 would have been a hell of a tour to see, and would have been a real high-note to retire on.

The No security tour 1999 was probably their best since Europe 1973. Great set list and great performance, but no official video released! Why? We know they taped some shows, for instance San Diego.

Don't agree, due to Ronnie's poor plying during that tour.

And unfortunately Keith's first bad tour, imo.

Would disagree about Keith. If there were any shortcomings, it was probably because he was literally doing the work of two men night after night. Ronnie was never as AWOL as he was on that tour.

However, one of Keith's strenghts was always knowing where not to play. IMO, he forgot that on the NS-tour.
the alternative being to have no guitarist playing at all? i think keith made the right call to play....

It was a No Security mini tour documentary filmed in Chicago. It has the clips of the interviews in SAL. That doc combined with 3 live NS dvds would've been the best package ever offered.

Yeah, you got a point. Still, all the recordings I have heard are full of what I would call aimless soloing (and way too much) by Keith. probably due to Ronnie being missing in action.

The Shepherd's Bush-gig is a good showcase for what I'm talking about.

as a technicality, the shepherd's bush gig was not a NS event - it was the final leg of the preceding tour. and as such, it was a bit of a letdown of a show, setlist notwithstanding.
i hate to issue technicalities, but someone had to do it....
